Chapter 514: The Crooked Tree Born Late
Chapter 514: The Crooked Tree Born Late
Li House.
I gently comforted Mrs. Li, who was so angry that she was crying.
Mrs. Li held Wansheng's hand and cried.
"I'm sorry...it's all mother's fault. If I hadn't wanted to save face and shouted this out, there wouldn't be this disaster today."
The people in the Wen family didn't like what she said.
What is today's disaster?
This is clearly a happy event, okay?
And Zhang also understood the whole story.
It turned out that the person from the Wen family broke off the engagement and then regretted it.
Now they are blackmailing their own son.
How could the people in the Wen Mansion be so shameless?
Although Zhang was cursing the three people from the Wen Mansion in her heart.
But she didn't dare to speak carelessly.
She was afraid that what she said might be inappropriate and that the Wen family would take advantage of it.
As for Marquis Ningyuan and his wife, it was difficult for them to say anything now.
After all, one side is the in-laws' family, and the other side is the daughter's family.
The Ningyuan Marquis's son and his wife couldn't even speak.
If they told the truth today.
Regardless of whether the Wen family admits it or not, they can forget about returning to their parents' home in the future.
Therefore, the only person who can speak now is the latecomer.
"Your Highness, Third Prince, as far as I know, in the past three years, this Miss Wen who claims to be my fiancée has been constantly looking for someone else."
Late student dropped a bombshell.
"You're lying. I've been waiting for you. How can I just go and see you?"
Wen Ruyue screamed.
"Do you dare to say that you haven't seen her in these years?"
Wansheng stared at Wen Ruyue and asked.
"I don't have any. I'm a lady from a wealthy family. I never go out of the house. Where can I meet someone?"
Wen Ruyue retorted.
And Old Master Wen was also there to support Wen Ruyue.
"Our Ruyue has always been the most polite lady from a noble family. She is already engaged, so why would she look at someone else?"
"Grandfather, now that Li Wansheng has become rich... he is determined to cancel this marriage, and we are not the kind of family that would cling to it..."
Wen Ruyue sobbed and looked at Old Man Wen.
"Grandfather, let's forget about this marriage. My granddaughter...my granddaughter still wants to save face..."
Wen Ruyue felt it vaguely.
It seems that today's incident may not go as they wish.
The Li family's attitude today is very tough.
Although she is fierce.
But in front of so many people, she still has to maintain her image as a noble lady.
So she felt that the best outcome would be to just let it go today.
Anyway, what a scene they had today.
Once people who know about this go out, they will not be able to control their mouths.
With the publicity of these people, and with the people sent out by their government to spread the word.
She believed that if Li Wansheng still wanted to stay in the officialdom.
He will definitely surrender.
Therefore, this matter does not necessarily have to have a result today.
It just so happened that Mr. Wen and Wen Ruyue had the same idea.
"My child... I am very pleased that you think this way..."
At this time, Mr. Wen acted as if it were real.
"Let's go back, Third Prince, Prince Fu, thank you for giving justice to me and my granddaughter today..."
Old Master Wen bowed to Prince Fu and the others.
After he finished speaking, he wanted to take Wen Ruyue and her daughter away.
"Master Wen, please stay."
The young man shouted.
The three people from the Wen family all breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that Li Wansheng is quite sensible.
He is bowing his head and surrendering.
fair enough.
If this marriage was decided in front of so many people.
The Li family can no longer regret this.
I have to say that the three people from the Wen Mansion were thinking a little too much at the moment.
"That's right. I think it's better to make some things clear."
Wansheng said as he looked at the three people from the Wen family who had stopped.
"You're right. I also think it's best to talk things out face to face and make them clear."
Mr. Wen stroked his beard, looked at me with satisfaction and said.
I bowed again to Prince Fu and the Third Prince.
"Just now I said that the young lady of the Wen family was looking for someone. I was not making this up. We have witnesses."
Hear what you said.
Wen Ruyue's expression suddenly changed.
She thought of the families she had visited.
Although when she went out to see the other party, both parties were secretive and used some chance encounters as an excuse.
But the purpose of seeing each other is real.
Could it be that the Li family has found those people?
Wen Ruyue's heart was beating like a drum.
And Mr. Wen also had a bad look on his face.
He didn't believe that the people in the Li Mansion could find the person Ru Yuexiang was looking for in such a short time.
After all, those families are all aristocratic families.
Look at this secret thing.
As long as the family is well-known, they will not spread these things outside.
This Li Wansheng must be deceiving them.
So, Mr. Wen quickly calmed down.
"I didn't expect that in order to cancel this marriage, you first bribed the matchmaker... and now you are framing us..."
He looked pissed.
Wen Ruyue, on the other hand, cooperated with her grandfather, wiping her tears and complaining.
"Grandfather, my granddaughter's reputation...is ruined today. How will I live from now on?"
To be honest, if someone doesn't know the inside story, they would be deceived by these three people from the Wen family.
Because the genuine feelings on their faces don't seem to be fake.
"Li Wansheng, I'm putting my words here today. If you don't produce the witnesses and evidence..."
Old Master Wen bowed to the young Prince Fu and the other two.
"I beg the Third Prince and Prince Fu to make the decision for our Wen family."
Little Prince Fu looked at Grandpa Wen with a smile.
"Don't worry, old man. If Li Wansheng is lying, I will report it to the emperor and charge him with abandoning his wife and children."
As soon as the little Prince Fu finished speaking, laughter suddenly broke out in the living room.
"Brother Prince, you are wrong... You used the wrong words, it's not abandoning your wife and children..."
The third prince lowered his voice and spoke to the young Prince Fu.
Little Prince Fu touched his nose embarrassedly.
"Old man, I said the wrong thing just now. If Li Wansheng really framed your family, I will report it to the emperor and charge him with breaking off the engagement."
The words of the young Prince Fu just now about abandoning his wife and children really made Old Master Wen a little confused.
Wen Ruyue, on the other hand, lowered her head shyly.
When Prince Fu said this, it was obvious that he was biased towards the Wen family.
She didn't expect that the Prince of Fu would be so eager to convict Li Wansheng.
Is it...
She really had a crush on me and wanted to ruin this matter.
That way he would have the chance to talk about marriage with me.
If it was really as she guessed.
Why did she have to hang herself on Li Wansheng's crooked tree?
